  1. NOTE: Use transmission fluid specified for this transmission. Do not use any supplemental transmission fluid additives or cleaning agents. The use of these products could cause internal transmission components to fail, which will affect the operation of the transmission. Transmission fluid cooler backflushing will be carried out using the Transmission Heated Cooler Line Flusher. Follow the manufacturer's instructions included with the machine. Test the equipment to make sure that a vigorous fluid flow is present before proceeding. Check and top off fluid level of the cooler line flusher with transmission fluid. Use the General Equipment: Transmission Cooling System Heated Flusher Material: Motorcraft® MERCON® LV Automatic Transmission Fluid (U.S.)/XT-10-QLVC (U.S.) (WSS-M2C938-A) (MERCON® LV)
  2. Allow the fluid in the cooler line flusher 15-30 minutes to heat up to 60°C (140°F) before using.
  3. Install the line adapters on the transmission fluid cooler tubes.
  4. Attach the cooler line flusher red line to the transmission fluid cooler inlet tube assembly.
  5. Attach the cooler line flusher blue line to the transmission fluid cooler outlet tube assembly.
  6. Follow the equipment instructions to purge the transmission fluid cooler tubes and transmission fluid cooler prior to starting the flushing procedure.
  7. Allow the transmission fluid cooling system to backflush for 10-15 minutes, then flush the transmission fluid cooler in a normal flow direction for an additional 10-15 minutes.
  8. Clean the transmission fluid auxiliary pump outlet tube, transmission fluid auxiliary pump inlet tube and transmission fluid cooler tube manifold.
  9. NOTE: Inspect the transmission fluid auxiliary pump inlet screen for contamination. If the screen is contaminated, replace the transmission fluid auxiliary pump. Transmission fluid auxiliary pump inlet tube Transmission fluid auxiliary pump inlet screen Transmission fluid auxiliary pump
